Welcome to our third edition of the best entries to the Open competition of the 2018 Sony World Photography Awards. If your image is chosen below, you’ve been chosen by our editors as among the best entries so far. Well done!

At the end of each month we’ll choose a monthly winner (from June - December) to be awarded with a blog feature, a 20 Image Bundle (worth £39.95, meaning more entries to the competition) and you’ll be sent a copy of the official 2017 Sony World Photography Awards book.
